Roundhill Farm is a short distance from the picturesque and historic Saddleworth villages of Delph, Denshaw, Dobcross, Diggle, Grasscroft, Greenfield and Uppermill, and these offer a wide range of recreational opportunities including museums, band contests, music and sports facilities as well as parks and miles of unspoilt countryside walks and outriding on quiet lanes.

The area also boasts the recently renovated Huddersfield Narrow Canal, which runs from Manchester through the Ashton Basin and on to Huddersfield through dramatic and spectacular scenery.

Strinesdale Country Park - a spectacular, 50-acre countryside area - is within easy and safe walking distance of the farm, and again offers miles of walking and riding. The area is rich in wild life (a protected Wild Life Area has been set aside within the Country Park), and Roundhill’s garden alone is home to at least 20 species of bird, many of which nest in the garden and woodland within Roundhill's grounds (including the swallows, which nest in the stables every year). The occasional roe deer can be seen wandering through the fields, if you're up early enough!

Mains electricity, mains water and a private septic tank. BT telephone and broadband services and excellent mobile phone reception.

HEATING & GLAZING

The house is fully central heated via a Rayburn oil-fired range cooker, which also supplies hot water and cooking. The house is fully cavity wall insulated and double glazing is installed throughout.

WAYLEAVES, EASEMENTS & RIGHTS OF WAY
The property is sold subject to and with the benefit of all wayleaves, easements and rights of way, declared and undeclared. There are two rights of way on the property, but these are distant from the curtilage. Following the decommissioning of Strinesdale reservoirs to make way for Strinesdale Country Park, which has created miles of public rights of way, these have fallen into disuse (although still legally in effect) and pose no inconvenience to the property.

All measurements given are approximate and for guidance only, with a six-inch tolerance allowed. Prospective purchasers are advised to take their own measurements, especially when ordering furnishings or furniture or other equipment.

TENURE & POSSESSION
Roundhill Farm is freehold, with vacant possession on completion, by arrangement.

PRICE: £699,000
